Our citizens were favored with two very
fine concerts on the evenings Of Feb 81,
and March ., given by the Occanyille and
West Deer Isle singing schools, under the
lead Of K. W. Higgins of Ellsworth. Mr..
Higgins has had charge of these schools
for the last two winters and under his
careful supervision they have made very
marked progress. Seyenty-tWo of the
best singers from both schools were Sc
lected to take part in the concerts, which
were given first at the Harbor in the rink
then at the Landing in Music hall.
The music comprised church anthems,
glees songs with chorus, plantation melo-
dies, etc. and was very finely rendered
throughout. The time was simply perfect,
scarcely break of hairs breadth being
maze for the evening. The Bugle Song
was very fine, and at the Landing was ac-
companied by Mr.. PeakeS, the band teach
er. on the cornet. which was a great i'm
provemcnt. Joshua, make the sun stand
still" was genuine plantation melody,
enough to make anybody's son stand still
to listen. \ lady at the Landing who is
no mean judge of music said she thought
the selections were as good and as well
rendered as any at the musical convention
at Rockland, which she attended last fall
The organist, too, deserves great credit
for her skill in giving all the parts so cor
rectly 1t would he hard to decide on the
respective merits of the two schools, they
were so evenly balanced. The singers did
great credit to themselves and their teach
er. We hope to secure the services Of Mr.
Higgins in this vicinity for another winter

A Pertinent Question by Representative

made the somewhat positive assertion

more questions like that one would
spoil all my theology - And so we think
that it would not take more than two
more questions like Mr.. Milliken's TO
